I get email

Aww, I don’t get as much furious Catholic email as I used to, so this is just a sentimental blast from the past.

www.vaticancatholic.com I hereby declare- you to be – – an unlawful obstructionist. I order all those assembled to immediately disperse. I repeat- to immediately disperse. I order all your activity to immediately cease. I repeat-to immediately cease. It is not in accord with the ordinances of Canon Law. Due to your catalytic tendency of disseminating objectives adverse to Christendom – you are therefore ordered to discontinue your illegal profession. Failure to do so will result in proactive, responsive, and co-active measures. I judge, adjudge, adjudicate, deem, determine and declare your thoughts, words, actions, public or secret, and omissions, biological and spiritual property, subject to the Jurisdiction of the Unfathomable, Infinite, and Ineffable Excellence of OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST. Further, your humanist anachronism, obscurantism, absurdum, intent, mission, and schemes, are henceforth proscribed and condemned. You may be arrested and or subject to other police action. It has so been declared: It is declared that all non-Catholic government exists in a state of inauthenticity. It is thenceforth declared that all modern constitutional states lack canonical legitimacy. It has therefore been thenceforth declared that their existence is an offense to the Divine Majesty and a crime against humanity. The aforesaid Freemasonic corporations are hereby declared anachronical to true human progress. It is decided in order for modern constitutional states to gain authenticity they must recognize the Supreme Jurisdiction of the Papacy and all Papal Dogmas. As a failure to do so will only inflame the Catholic against such blasphemous tyrannical backwards regimes. Lord God is due to make Visitation to such blighted and noxious governments and tyrannies. He will Visit the iniquities upon the infidels and the Anti-Church bigots. Terror will overtake the faces of the unwashed masses. These exquisite bigots against the Papacy will know that the Lord God Himself has done it. The infidel are richly fattened for such Visitation. It is hereby determined. ‘Fiat voluntas tua, sicut in caelo, et in terra’. Thy will be done on earth, as it is in Heaven. Libertarianism (and the constitution) are simply tyrannical failures and instruments that lead to false flag attacks and government-run pedophilia through their Manual (and Visual) Body-Cavity Searches of Juvenile Hall youth. A Catholic Monarchy simply is the answer to today’s varied and many problems. There is Absolutely No Salvation Outside the Catholic Church see www.vaticancatholic.com

One look at their side, and it becomes apparent that they don’t even believe in the current catholic church and pope. No, these are the True Catholics, you know, the ones who want to go back straight to the middle ages, and want to do away with even the extremely modest progression the church has made in the last half of the twentieth century.

Funny (for certain values of funny) thing is, in the middle ages, it would be these guys who would be prosecuted by the church as being heretics…

It reads almost like an exorcism or some of the language from the old demon grimoires; the constant assertions of authority, the appeals to some strange notion of legal principles, the not-so-veiled threats, the overly flamboyant and technical language.

I wonder if this guy really views you as a kind of demon that he can invoke god’s power against. He might seriously think that this is magically going to force you to shut up. I guess he’s about to be sorely disappointed.

Libertarianism (and the constitution) are simply tyrannical failures and instruments that lead to false flag attacks and government-run pedophilia through their Manual (and Visual) Body-Cavity Searches of Juvenile Hall youth.

What I find more even more perplexing, surprising, startling, flabbergasting than the pompous, ostentatious, pretentious, orotund, heavily thesaurus based but vacuous, ineffectual, vapid message… is that these loons hold the domain vaticancatholic.com :)

On a related note, I recently found out that part of the preparation for beatification is an investigation to make sure that no “heretical cult” is currently worshipping the person in question. Cult of Ratzinger, anyone…?

this summer I had the privileged of working with a production of Shakespeare’s “King John”
in the play the Louis Dauphin of france says to the Legit of Rome
“Am I Rome’s slave?”
there was no answer but the truth was of course “yes of course why do you even have to ask?”

the religious and the priests that control religion have always claimed ultimate control and authority
it is so nice when you can get them to openly say it in what for them constitutes plain language.
That little missive reads just like a formal curse
so much for the admonition to not judge “as you judge so shall you be judged”
I guess that only applies to if we try to judge them?

I declare,pronounce,pontificate,proclaim,enunciate,beseech,announce myself to be Grand Emperor of this galaxy, and therefore, nullify,expunge,forbid,negate,and otherwise prevent you from ordering PZ and squidlings to disperse. I further command, order,entreat your illegal church to cease any and all claims to any further jurisdiction over any animals, plants, rocks, water and gases, on this, my planet.( I love this game!)

Sounds like he watched too much Michael Voris, who has won the Worst Rug on Youtube Award 3 years in a row. My favorite is one he took down later. The one that said “only virtuous people should be allowed to vote”. He defined “virtuous as “faithful Catholics”. He also wanted to reestablish Catholic monarchies. Like in the good old days.

I can see why he would be upset about “government-run pedophilia through their Manual (and Visual) Body-Cavity Searches of Juvenile Hall youth”. Such activity is clearly the sole prerogative of the Catholic hierarchy.

I hereby declare- you to be – – an unlawful obstructionist. I order all those assembled to immediately disperse. I repeat- to immediately disperse. I order all your activity to immediately cease. I repeat-to immediately cease.

Gleetings Ilk ! I’ve had a bit of an accident and have only two fingers o type with; tis an improvement , for a month I only had one. Luvkily just enough to still play CIV 5. Er, er, that there quote is your future little ones except for twhatever bollards they need to invent to get you. Your poh-leese ae already the greatest threats to your freedom(s) you’ve ever seen. Get moving, stop being so easily distracted or you’re toast.

Heh, I was going to have a chuckle and a pretend whinge about the Australian government existing “in a state of inauthenticity” … but then I remembered that the Mad Monk is being sworn in today as our new PM, so we probably now qualify in their opinion.
and now I’m not chuckling anymore, dammit.

An interesting thing is that Dimond is a sedevacantist. That’s one who believes the papacy has been vacant since the death of Pius XII in 1958 and all the popes from John XXIII to Frankie are actually anti-popes. So while he’s claiming the Catholic Church is the supreme authority on Earth, he doesn’t mean the Catholic Church as we know it, with Pope Frankie running a cult with about a billion followers. Dimond thinks he and his half-dozen followers are the true church.

You may be arrested and or subject to other police action. It has so been declared: It is declared that all non-Catholic government exists in a state of inauthenticity. It is thenceforth declared that all modern constitutional states lack canonical legitimacy.

But the police force is provided by the state… so if the constitutional state lacks legitimacy, you don’t have any police with which to arrest me!

You know, if you sing these words to the tune Stairway to Heaven, it scans pretty well.

No, no it doesn’t. (Don’t look at me that way — because that’s the way my silly brain works, that’s why.) The first few sentences are pretty good, but then it all falls apart. You can get a little further with “Brain Damage”, with a nice rhythm to the redundant verbiage, but it’s hopeless, really. His sentences are just too fucking long. I’m forced to concede that “Brain Damage” is too good for him.

There’s a letter from Pope Innocent IV to the Mongol Khan in 1245, supposedly to explain Christianity to him. I think your correspondent took it as a model; it has the same combination of incomprehensibility and absolute conviction. It starts like this and gets more obscure from there:

The immense benevolence of God the father, considering with ineffable piety the fall of mankind, which came to ruin by the sin of the first man, and wishing with great love to mercifully revive him whom diabolic envy has made prostrate by deceitful suggestion, has sent his only-begotten son, sharing the same nature with him, from the highest throne of heaven to the lowest dirt of the world, he who, conceived in the womb of the pre-elected virgin by the grace of the Holy Spirit and endowed there with the clothing of human flesh, thenceforth appeared to all, having exited from the enclosed gate of his mother’s virginity.

In the olden days, when my job got me mail of this type, it used to come on crumpled, extra-cheap paper, with tiny type jammed across the page and barely advanced on the spindle enough to separate the lines. Almost as if it were required by a style manual, it ran up-hill reading left to right. This is similar, barring the typeface. We used to call it crazy type. All you had to do was open the envelope and you knew it was going to be a long morning. I used to have to answer some of those.
Yes, politely!
This one is was ultra-high grade though. Most impressive long-sequence addled typing.

There are few things quite so pathetic as someone claiming authority without the power to enforce that authority. Given the phrasing I suspect this idiot thinks the wording, references, perhaps even the word order itself, has some magical power. Sort of like the invocation of “the power of Christ” in an exorcism. It is a sort of by-the-numbers, shake-and-bake, formulaic, summoning of imagined supernatural powers by an essentially powerless person.

Always good for a laugh.

Of course, this guy is free to claim authority over imaginary places and beings. Like heaven, hell, demons, angels. etcetera … Imaginary beings evidently lack all sense of irony and don’t laugh when a powerless fop rattles on about their authority.

Read it aloud. It has that fundamental characteristic of poetry – a sound and rhythm that set it apart from normal prose speech. It’s poetry run through The Book of the Subgenius after three bowls of hashish and a hit of bad blotter acid but poetry nonetheless

Someone tell this dipshit the Roman church bears about as much resemblance to Jesus’ beliefs as packing peanuts do to actual peanuts, huh? Jesus didn’t speak Latin. Didn’t implement sacraments. Certainly wasn’t trying to start a new religion, but purify an older one, his religion, Judaism.

Sometimes I wonder if these people know even a tiny little bit about Jesus. Like the fact that he spoke Aramaic, and that the earliest NT books would have been in Syrian and Koine Greek. If I ever get my hands on this idiot I’ll give him an aionion kolasin, to properly quote Matthew 25:46…
